How did I miss this one? Love the sound of a baritone, and the whammy bar is the cherry on top.
Absolutely!! Hope you’re well Sassy Cat!
Glad to finally have a formal introduction to Mr. Tone. I was not a fan of that headstock when I first saw it, but it's really grown on me. Sounds great with the Big Muff.
Thanks Randy
That sounds great! Love me a nice baritone
Thanks Dan...I love it...I play it all the time
This is just awesome my dear friends! I love playing a 7 string anytime, or an 6 string loaded with heavy strings in B standard, but i don't know how a baritone neck is feeling in its long scale, that's why i told you my Gabor about fan fretted concerns, i found out that 25.5 and 24.7 inches fits me best and it's kind of hard to soloing down of the long baritone/fan fretted guitar fretboard, without having an amazing warm up for the stretching to do 5 notes intervals per string.....I can definently say that this is the best exercise for the fretting hand and about Eastwood of Canada, i have a big weakness related to their Airline guitars, i will dig more into thomann for seeing more guitars, especially the guitar that will fit me for soft music(hard choice after so many years spended on heavy electric guitars)...... I do wait your professional opinions for the all in one blues-jazz guitar.....Cheers mates!
Hmmmmmmmmmm ..... ben might be able to get his hands on 1 of those now .... I also was looking at them too ... So cool you are posting a video about it.
Beautiful opening.
Thank you very much!!
I picked up the cheapo side jack baritone (think its indonesian made?) second hand about 6 months ago and I havent put it down. It plays and sounds brilliantly and its transformed my home recordings. I too have experimented with lower tunings on std scale length guitars and have had some success with that as well. It’s a great trick for song writing inspiration 👍
Absolutely....this one is Chinese made...but it plays great!!
A $1,000 Chinese guitar?
@@davidjohnston4345 Can't speak about the Chinese made ones but the Indonesian made one I have was £180/$200ish on the used market
sounds like an upgraded version of my old danelectro bari. Also i prefer to think of the bari truning as having a capo in reverse
That is a good idea...
Niiiiiiiice
Thanks RJ...hope you’re well...been missing your live-streams the last few weeks...I need to try and stay up next week!!
Such a high tuning for such a long scale haha. You could easily reach a low e for the sixth string. You could have a low b on a 25.5 scale. But I love this guitar super kool
clean, dirt...total package and streroidish sound: home run!
Are there enough string tension for a Drop G tuning on this 28" scale baritone? I love the sound and looks of the guitar, love the p90's and the jag/jazzmaster tremolo is fantastic on a baritone guitar, but I would like to have the possibility to use different (low) tunings without getting too sloppy on the string tension.
That would depend on your string gage. But Conan played drop F on 24 3/4 Les Pauls - so a 28 inch scale will do that no issues!
You will be absolutely fine. You could even probably go an octave down - just make sure you’re sticking to guitar string tension, if you get too high tension with those low tunings you basically make a bass
The barbarian?@@thesystima
Baritones and Big Muffs were just meant to be together.
Where is the sidejack made?
It’s made in China
How are the stock tuners?
The tuners are pretty good…the main thing I would change is the vibrato! I’ve been wanting to put a black Mastery on it for a while…but to get a black vibrato and bridge costs almost as much as the guitar…
anybody ever upgrade the wiggly bits with a Mastery on these?
I really want to get a black Mastery Bridge & Vibrato for it…
They come with 16-53 strings, what gauge did you put on?
I checked...they are 14-64 Stringjoy Baritone Strings
Really...16? The 1st string on the 14-64 set seemed heavier to me...
Oops, 13-62 is what they come with. Might give the 14-64s a go when this set is done with. Thanks for the video!
Eastwood guitars are NOT GOOD GUITARS.
I bought a "Eastwood Sidejack Baritone DLX TREM Greenburst" at Thomann in December 2018.
I rarely play this guitar.
Last weekend I had a recording session requiring that guitar. The neck had moved, so I tried to adjust the truss-rod, but, the truss-rod nut would not rotate, so I stopped right away.
I 1stly emailed Thomann for help, but they practically told me to go f*** myself. 🤣
So I emailed directly at Eastwood, and Mr Michael Robinson answered me that Thomann is not one of their dealers, sort of a big lie telling me to sh*ve that baritone up my ***. 🤣
Unfortunately, Thomann surely was a Eastwood dealer when they sold the guitar to me, as Thomann doesn't sell used guitars online (only new equipment and B-Stock from their own stock), so I sent the Thomann invoice (.pdf) as a proof that Thomann was a dealer when they sold that guitar to me.
On top of that, there was a delay for the delivery as Thomann was expecting new stock, and it's mentioned in the purchase invoice, definitely proving that Thomann was a Eastwood official dealer and was stocking Eastwood guitars.
Anyway, Eastwood guitars ARE DEFINITELY NOT QUALITY INSTRUMENTS, and their warranty and customer service are a laughable joke.
So, everybody out there ... DON'T BUY THESE CHEAP GUITARS !!!! You could be lucky, but if you aren't Eastwood lifetime warranty will never be covered by Eastwood.
For instance, the Hagström Viking Deluxe Baritone is the exact same scale length and is a way way better manufactured instrument and is noiseless (humbucker). The Danelectro '66BT Baritone is more expensive and a little less Mosrite-look-alike, but also a way better instrument and is noiseless (lipstick humbucker). On both these guitars the "noisy" neck P90 pickup can be changed for the WONDERFUL "DiMarzio Virtual P90" which I highly recommend (... for any P90 application).
Sounds like a you problem
Weird, I own 5, love them all, gig w them all.
@@calumpasqua9619 could you tune a baritone guitar to E standard? I’m thinking about buying one
